Email Notification Error

[Deyth]

My web host uses Qmail which seems to have issues with the formatting used in the auto-emails. I brought this problem up before and I was told to run:

UPDATE template SET template = REPLACE(template, "\n", "\r\n");

That SQL query did in fact fix it so that auto-emails for registration and pm notifications worked, but I'm still having problems with the topic notifications and the auto-email to admins when a user registers.

Did you modify any templates after running that query? If so run it again.

By the way, this is not a Qmail issue. My server runs QMail. It's a problem with certain Windows systems.

[Deyth]

Would you happen to know the solution?

[Steve Machol]

Yes, the solution is to run the query you posted above. It has worked in every instance I've used it so far. This is why I asked you if you had modified any templates.

[Deyth]

No I didn't.

[Steve Machol]

Hmmm...well as I said this has always worked before. I have no idea why it's not working for you now.

What are the specific error messages you are getting?

[Deyth]

I just reran it once more. Try to register to our board, http://www.the-combine.net/vbulletin

I'm having a weird issue right now that prevents me from trying to register myself. I logged out, hit register, filled it in, then hit submit and it keeps telling me the 2 passwords I entered don't match. I tried this about 10 times, I'm sure they are identical.

[Steve Machol]

I was able to register without that error. However I did see an error on line 502 of register.php. That line is this:

mail ($newuseremail,$subject,$message,"From: \"$bbtitle Mailer\" <$webmasteremail>");

This is the same email problem as before.

I filled out a ticket and I also pmed you with a couple questions regarding your post.

[Steve Machol]

Please don't PM me with support questions.

I though you said you ran that query. Since you haven't heard of phpMyAdmin how did you run it? Through the mysql prompt?

PhpMyAdmin is a MySQL database management tool. Most web hosts provide this as part of the web site management tools such as CPanel, Plesk or Ensim. Look for a link to SQL or MySQL Databases. If you can't find it I suggest you ask your host about this.

If for some reason they do not provide phpMyAdmin or an equivalent MySQL manager, then you can download and install phpMyAdmin yourself from this location:

Ahhh, I use mySQL-Front. I just added the connection information to the ticket.

[Steve Machol]

It didn't work. I need the specific URL.

[Deyth]

I posted something to the ticket that seems like what you were after.

[Steve Machol]

Thanks. I responded.
